Haley's offense has had people open down the field. See the shovel pass in the first half. If Ben has time to throw, it's an easy 6 to Wheaton.

Maybe someone can create some sort of game like stoshs score game? What week will the Steelers create a TO game?

It just seems like yesterday I was watching a D flying all over the field creating TOs, stuffing the run and getting lots of sacks. It's sad watching this shit show.

Just in the past year we've extended 3 extremely soft player, we've drafted soft players and embraced a soft player at one of the most important positions in football that just happens to protect the franchise's blind side. I'd say soft is a very good description for this team and the sad part is it's been by design. So who is held accountable for that? Most likely nobody.

I didn't like signing Gilbert. Worst fears about him being realized.

Cam Thomas- I wanted to see what he could do in real games. Well, he's good at getting moved backwards it turns out.

It's not enough to have a few quality players. We've got to have quality across the board. We lost the battle of scrimmage on both sides.

Umm, when Ben has a nano second to make a read and throw,it's virtually impossible for him to throw anything past 10 yards. It's a fact. I don't really like Haley, but this OL would have any OC handcuffed.

the OL blows....any coordinator in the league would be calling plays with both hands tied behind his back.

Yeah let's have Ben hold the ball longer for deeper patterns. Our studs on the oline will give him plenty of time for that.

Just a bad game. Bad luck. Bad calls. Bad plays... I'm not that excited about Mitchell.

He hasn't gelled yet. Takes more than a couple games I think. I'm Waaaaaaaay more alarmed with the DLine myself No Pass Rush and Can't stop a bubble on a lite breeze.

I think he needs another $25 million to get REALLY motivated.

At least we traded some picks so we could rot Shamark Thomas on the bench for 2-3 years.

The problem is he isn't even our worse BIG FA signing.

Herpes Thomas takes that crown.

This is the second consecutive game this asshole has allowed more pressure and sacks killing drives. MY question is how long you gonna try and ride this out? Gilbert sucks you should have Never extended him. I nominate Adams next week to start RT.

Gilbert fucking loves giving up a sack or key pressure that makes the B&G settle for 3.

Gilbert got pancaked by a 5'10 250 pound OLB in Dumerville.

But hey, at least he hasn't taken out of his teammates' ACLs yet.

He clearly deserves more money.

The day they moved Adams to LT, when he was really settling in at RT, is gonna haunt this team for a long time.

That move ruined Adams and forced the SHIT that is Marcus Gilbert on us for a very, very long time.

Usually that's broken out for the irony of it all. Unfortunately this isn't the case with fat Gilbert.

Kemo Colon Pouncey and Gilbert all with fat cap wrecking contracts. Its like an unending nightmare

They need to bench Gilbert and insert Adams. Adams is slow as shit and gets beat around the edge but you never see him pancaked like Gilbert.

Gilbert is slow, lazy and weak. Adams is only slow and lazy.

Is it possible that Adams is worse than Gilbert?

Was FC that said, "Buyer Beware" and he hit the nail on the head. Gilbert just got destroyed tonight. If I'm him I go hide in the corner of the plane and hope no one tases me and beats me with a bat.
